The Samba Domain Deployment Model consists of a HP CIFS Server configured as a Primary
Domain Controller (PDC), and one or more HP CIFS Servers acting as Backup Domain Controllers
(BDCs). The PDC, BDCs, and member servers use the central LDAP backend to consolidate POSIX
and Windows accounts on the LDAP directory. It requires HP LDAP-UX Client Services software
installed and configured on HP CIFS Servers for larger deployments.
